This alternative model treats the nine charged fundamental fermions (three leptons and nine quarks) as spheres with non-zero holographic radius. Holographic analysis (based on quantum mechanics, general relativity, thermodynamics, and Shannon information theory) specifies electron mass by five fundamental constants: Planck’s constant ℏ, gravitational constant G, fine structure constant α, cosmological constant Λ, and vacuum energy fraction ΩΛ. Protons and neutrons are composite systems of up and down quarks. Describing forces between quark constituents confined within nucleons as inverse square attractive forces, this alternative model identifies composition factors Cpand Cnto relate proton and neutron masses to electron mass and thus to fundamental constants. An appendix summarizes holographic analyses characterizing astronomical masses at the opposite end of the mass scale for objects in the universe.展开更多

This decrease in the kinetic energy of the exchanged electron in the hydrogen molecular ion and the decrease in the dynamical mass of the two exchanged pions in the nucleon-nucleon interaction are at the origin of the attraction mechanism in the molecular covalent bonding and in the nuclear interaction. Based on this unitary approach of the attraction mechanism, the formulas of molecular potential and central nucleon-nucleon potential were derived. The decrease in the mass of the exchanged pions in the nucleon-nucleon bound state, actually means the decrease in the mass of the nucleons. This nucleon mass decrease could be a manifestation of the partial chiral symmetry restoration in nuclear matter.展开更多

The effective mass is predicted by including the ground-state correlation effect and the TBF rearrangement effect, and we discuss the momentum dependence and the density dependence of the effective mass. It is shown that the effect of ground state correlations plays an important role at low densities, while the TBF-induced rearrangement effect becomes predominant at high densities.展开更多
